Back Then, I Adored You

Qin Zhi’ai quickly handed over the documents Gu Yusheng had requested. “Master Gu, these are files you need.”

As a gust of cold wind blew, Qin Zhi’ai could not help but shiver, and even her voice obviously trembled.

Gu Yusheng did not respond to what she’d said, but he spoke some unrelated words. “Get in the car.”

“What?”

“Okay.”

Confused, Qin Zhi’ai responded twice, then obedientlyentered the car.

After closing the door, she handed the files to Gu Yusheng again. “Master Gu, the files.”

After receiving the files, Gu Yusheng ignored her. Instead, he lightly spoke to Xiaowang who was sitting in front of him. “Drive to Yongxin Garden.”

Yongxin Garden is where I live, is he trying to send me back?

Qin Zhi’ai glanced at Gu Yusheng, who was looking through the files, trembling slightly as she twiddled her fingers.

After confirming that those files were complete and correct, Gu Yusheng laid them aside casually, then turned his head and fixed his eyes on the stack of documents she held in her arms. He raised his chin slightly and asked, “Those are?”

Qin Zhi’ai hurriedly handed the documents to Gu Yusheng. “Master Gu, these need your signature.”

Gu Yusheng pursed his lips and lightly said, “Hmm.” He then withdrew a pen from his pocket and looked at Qin Zhi’ai.

Qin Zhi’ai looked at the documents clinched against her chest, as well as Gu Yusheng, with uncertainty. The next moment, as if she’d suddenly realized something, she quickly opened the files one by one and handed them to Gu Yusheng. He stylishly signed his name on each of the documents, one after another.

It was so quiet in the car that only the rustling of the papers could be heard.

After all the papers had been signed, complete silence prevailed.

Xiaowang was probably used to being around Gu Yusheng, so he seemingly thought nothing of it.

Qin Zhi’ai didn’t know if it was because she was too close to Gu Yusheng, and she had felt that the air in the car became increasingly stagnant and weird. At last, she dared not breathe.

It was still a long way from where she’d lived, and if the atmosphere stayed so stiff, she thought that she may be suffocated to death before arriving.

In order to break the silence and make herself seem less rigid, Qin Zhi’ai quickly thought about something that she’d often been reminded of by people at the office.

Every month, Hui Shi Game Company would hold team building activities.

The day of team building happened to be last weekend.

Since Gu Yusheng had purchased Hui Shi, however, the team building event hadn’t been held as usual.

Without the order of Gu Yusheng, the company’s finance department dared not approve the allocation of funds for the activities.

She was Gu Yusheng’s secretary as well as the only person, aside from the top management of the company, allowed to be so close to Gu Yusheng. Due to this, the others had urged her to say something about the team building situation to Gu Yusheng.

Remembering that, Qin Zhi’ai turned her head and looked at Gu Yusheng. “Master Gu?”

Gu Yusheng was leaning against the back seat, and it was nighttime so the light within the car was somewhat dim. Qin Zhi’ai couldn’t clearly see the expression on Gu Yusheng’s face, but she could feel that his eyes looking at her were very bright. “What?”

“Well, there’s one more thing that I haven’t reported to you yet…” Qin Zhi’ai quickly thought of what to say, and continued. “Every month, the company would hold some team building activities. Last weekend, the activities should’ve been held, but without your order, it could not be carried out…”
